Fears that China has been the target of a terrorist attack were heightened
last night after the FBI and Interpol joined investigations into a
Beijing-bound airliner that vanished over the sea.

Flight MH370 — travelling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing — is thought to have
disintegrated at 35,000ft above the South China Sea in the early hours of
Saturday after two of its 239 passengers boarded the flight with stolen
passports.

The FBI, Interpol, Malaysia and Beijing all opened inquiries into whether the
flight had been blown up by a bomb or had crashed as a result of a botched
hijacking.
